Lucy POV
Sometimes, in our life, we do the things we didn't wish to do. Sometimes, we tend to hurt our friends, loved ones, and even the person closest to our hearts. Sometimes, we didn't know that we almost forgot to put our deepest gratitude to the one highest to us, our protector, and our maker, the Almighty God. Sometimes, we seek revenge on those who hurt us, and sometimes we didn't resent the thing we do wrong but are you happy living like that?
I thought putting them to prison or paying their sins is enough but it wasn't. People with a dark and stone heart don't know how to forgive, how to love, and how to do good deeds. Their heart was filled with evil power and Cassandra and Val had it.
I and Kent just received a call from Detective Riley this time because Detective Morgan is out of town. He told us the bad news about Val and Cassandra escaping jail. Another bad news for my husband Kent is that he got a call from his step
Lucy POVTomorrow is my last day here in jail and it seems like I was locked in here for only a week. Time passed by so fast and my five years of staying here will finally soon end.I was convicted of a case I didn't do and it's ironic right, that I was the one who takes all the blame where both of them are having the good times of their life together with my son.I clenched my fist in anger. While looking at the pile of bars in front of me, I feel like a murderer for five years. Life is unfair. If you're poor, you're always poor, if you're rich, you will become richer.Just wait and the world will soon be mine."Hey, Lucy, weren't you excited? We're now free at last tomorrow!" Cassandra sat beside me with a smile on her face. I can see how happy she was and waited for this day to come.Arian and Gwen only stared at us like jealous neighbors. They became good to me after the incident they never forget. 
two months later..."Daddy, I want ice cream!" Dilan set a puppy eyes at his father for his favorite dessert.They just got home at the airport. It's been five years since they visit the Philippines. Eloisa decided to build a new building in Makati while Kent will be taking over her family's company, The Kings and Queens Hotel.Eloisa hides from Kent about what happened to Lucy. He has no idea that she was put in jail and sentenced to five years because of him."Just wait baby, I'll call your mommy to buy it for you. Wait here, okay?" Kent put his son in the lobby area and look for Eloisa.While Lucy was busy looking for her ingredients for the new dessert she started to make, she heard someone's crying. It's a little boy wearing a stripe polo t-shirt with jumper pants. His face looks familiar. He resembles her ex-lover Kent Oliver Stone."Hey, why are you crying? Where are your parents? Are you lost?" S
Two months earlier...Lucy heard a familiar voice behind her. It sounded like her friend she met five years ago."Lucy?" He called her.She stops yelling at nowhere and turned her head towards him.She was shocked to see Gale. What a coincidence that they met again at the place where Gale discovered to use for problems confession."You? You're here. I bet you had many problems and mistakes to confessed here!" Lucy told him while her eyes were covered with tears. She quickly dried it with her palm.Gale took a deep breath and smiled at her."Maybe. I just got here. It's nice to see you again here. I'm sorry about last time because I didn't have time to meet you before I go back abroad." He explained to her and Lucy finally understand why he just vanished." Well, it's all in the past. I'm glad I see you again. It's time for me to go. It's your turn now." She said and about to go
Eloisa and Kent heard that Gale was now happily married to a girl named Greta. It's been three years since they last met him at Dilan's second birthday party and after that, they lost contact with him.They just received an invitation letter from Gale and Greta for the anniversary celebration of their famous penthouse called Zeus Palace. It's been a year they first built it and all investors were now laying on a pile of money especially Lucy who was Greta now and Gale. Their building became popular and even the Kings and Queens Hotels are now on the list of getting bankrupt that's why Eloisa and Kent immediately left the states and decided to stay in the Philippines for good to personally manage their company. The Ace Wine Corp whom been managed by Alexander wasn't in good condition too."Shall we go there? I'm so excited to meet his wife." Eloisa raises her tattoed eyebrows at her husband.Kent who was busy playing at Dilan heard her and answe
10 hours before the partyEloisa POVI set up my alarm on my phone at exactly five in the morning. I slowly drag my lazy body out of our bed when Kent woke up with my sudden movement.He impatiently opens his eyes to see what I was doing."It's too early. Where do you think you're going?", he asked me while I was preparing myself to take a shower.I sat beside him and planted a kiss on his lips." I'll go jog to stretch my legs, honey. I felt my body seems to get weaker after we get home." I mumbled.Kent was still sleepy so he let me go."Just come back before Dilan woke up l, okay? You know he's looking for you every time he woke up." He reminded me.I just wear my sweet smile at my husband when he said about our son Dilan but the truth was I hated him so much. When I see his face especially his eyes, it reminded me about Lucy.He's not mine to protect and defend. I
Kent POVIt was Sunday and I'm so excited to know the result of Lucy's ultrasound. I have a great feeling that the baby in her belly was a boy. She always nagging me about the spicy foods she craves and sometimes she's stubborn to keep herself inside the villa.I called Eloisa too that I will be home late because of an emergency business meeting. I bought her favorite fruits apples and grapes. I did some groceries too so she can't nag at me anymore."I'm home!", I stepped inside and saw Lucy preparing our lunch.She's still charming and curvy with the flowery duster I bought for her. Even her belly is now six months old, she's still sexy for me." Oh, you're on time! I'm about to serve our lunch!", she looks excited about her menu than my presence."Was it tastier than me?", I slowly lean closer behind her back and wrapped my arms around her waist.She holds my hands and caresses them.&nbs
Lucy POVI woke up and found myself laying on my mattress. I felt strange since I didn't go back to my room last night. Did Gale carry me all the way upstairs just to place me inside my room? I feel careless because I didn't remember that I fell asleep on the terrace.I quickly put my toes on the floor and ambled out from my bed going to the bathroom. I made a quick shower and open my dress cabinet to choose what kind of outfit I will be wearing for today. It's my me-time so I have my freedom to go anywhere I want. I decided to wear a plain white t-shirt and baggy pants to go to the supermarket for groceries. An Adidas white sneakers will be more attractive to pair with. I love wearing comfortable dresses especially when I'm not inside the penthouse or office.I sat in front of my make-up area and saw my reflection in the mirror. I saw myself but in an aura of a different person and not the coward Lucy from the past. While thinking about what happe
Lucy POVI almost forgot what I need to buy for groceries because of the sudden presence of Kent. I tried to act cool in front of him but deep inside, I have torn apart, broken into pieces, helpless, and damaged. He's the one who made my life miserable. If he didn't hit in me, fooled and betrayed me, everything is perfect even he's not with me. Yes, I admit, I trusted him with my life and it's the biggest mistake made in my life.I saw him walking away with guilt in his eyes. He should feel how to lose loved ones since he took our child away from me. He has no idea that the contract made by his wife about adopting Austin was fake. He's a total asshole.I shook my head and take a deep breath to vanished all the memories I had with him five years ago. I was so crazy and blinded to everything by loving him back then. Call me bitch, fool, imbecile, and dumb but I was too young and in love back then."Wake up, Lucy. You're now G

Lucy went home after confronting Eloisa. She witnesses a huge revelation for following her. She bid goodbyes at one another and she decided to drop off at their company.She used the elevator for convenient transportation. She arrived in front of her husband's office and she knocked slowly. She didn't wait for any second when Kent opened his office door."Hi, honey. I'm back." She said and planted a soft kiss on his lips.Kent looked mad after he shut the door behind her."What happened? I told you to stay away from Cassandra and take care of Austin! Don't tell me you haven't get your lesson yet!", Kent's tone seems like she was to blame for the kidnapping incident.Kent's cupped his head when Lucy slapped his face.It leaves a red mark." How dare you Kent. I am just doing this to secure the safety of our family especially Austin! Do you think I am doing this for myself?", she suddenly burst
Val POVThis is not the end of everything. They think they're safe even inside the prison. I will kill all of you especially Alexander who let my daughter die. Their money is not enough to buy their life.I saw Gifford, their cellmates. I need to approach him about my plan. I will ask for his little help tonight. Cassandra and I talked about our plan yesterday when she sneaks into our cell.FlashbackCassandra waited for the security guards to have a break for coffee shifts before she sneaks inside the boy's cell. She needs to tell Val about her plan how to assassinate their daughter's murderer.She went to his cell. She called Val from the outside. She prepared a letter about what to do for Paul and Alexander. Tomorrow, the security guards will bring them to another penitentiary where only two of them will stay. It's called the VIP cellar.Val was awak
Eloisa POV I secretly visited the real Cassandra inside the prison. No one knows about this even my husband or Lucy. I went alone and I wanted to ask many questions about her why she went to this point to kidnapping my husband's nephew who's very dear to my heart. I want to keep this to avoid everyone being suspicious about me. Well, I have a secret. I came to visit my sister's friend Catalina. Upon my mom's rehabilitation process, she was there. We met even I'm still young that day, I know exactly what Catalina looks like. They were so much alike by her sister so they think they're twins but that's not the truth. Catalina was Cassandra's little sister and she has a mental disorder where she loves copying someone. She's under the care of Cassandra when we saw her with dad. I hope someone didn't follow me. I took a deep breath before entering the hospital. Mom was there too and I need a little time to get her out
Lucy POVAfter the kidnapping incident of my son Austin, I decided to visit Cassandra inside the prison.My dreams are telling me to come and see her. I want to ask many questions and I am hoping that she could answer all of them. This sounds ridiculous but I want to help her even though she tried to steal my husband for one night and to get my child. I need to clarify something about us inside the prison. Something isn't right. I saw the pin in her hair same with Eloisa. I want to know how it happened that their things were so much alike.I wonder if it was just a coincidence. I don't know but I am not contented with her and Val went to prison and her sister Catalina to the Asylum. I think something is not right. I need to know more about her so I can have peace in my mind.I'm glad that Austin slowly recovered from his trauma in the kidnapping incident. I got a new nanny for him and her name is Laura. She's fi
Three weeks after Lucy got shot...Kent hurriedly called the doctor to check his wife's condition when Lucy moves her right fingers."Is she going to wake up? She's moving her fingers, doc! Honey, it's me, Kent!", he whispered closer to her ears.The doctor and nurses prepared everything to check her vitals if she's now in active mode, meaning, her organs are now working well. P" Let's wait for her reactions again. Maybe this is a good sign." Her doctor said.While everyone is waiting for her reaction, Lucy suddenly trembled and Kent started to panic."Doc, what is happening to my wife?", he doesn't know what to do.The doctor checks her bp and her pulse." Sir, please calm down. Let's wait for the progress. She's getting reactions from the dose we injected to her." Kent went closer and hold Lucy's hands."Honey, please, you need to wake up. You're safe now and Austin." He said
The real Cassandra has finally awake. She was confined at the Makati Hospital after she got shot by Kent for self-defense. She was struggling from being chained and keep screaming inside like crazy Carolina too."Let me out!", she shouted until two police officers came." Mrs. Wilson, it's time for you to get back to jail! You will be facing multiple cases and you will be imprisoned for ten years!", Leutinant Mikael said while they unchained her and replaced it with handcuffs."No, I won't go with you. You can't take me to the jail! I'm innocent!", she cried out.But police officers didn't listened to her. They put her on the wheelchair and put her inside the police car. While Cassandra arrested by the police to pay for her sin, Lucy is still unconscious." How is Lucy?", Kent's brother Gale asks him.Eloisa went to the supermarket with Austin. She helps the child cope up with the trauma he has been
"Let me go! I am not crazy! My daughter is waiting for me. I am Cassandra Wilson and I am stable!", she screamed while they put her inside the ambulance to be sent to the asylum.***Lucy and her family are having dinner when they received a call that made them shake." What? Cassandra has a twin?", she asks Damian on the other line."Yes, Miss Mason. Her name is Carolina Hermes and she's living as a patient at and the Mandaluyong mental center. " The couple started to get nervous again.Meaning, Cassandra is still out there!", the detective added.Lucy's hand trembled to the sudden news. She has no idea that Cassandra has a twin and the one she treated as her dear friend was the crazy Carolina."No! You're lying, sir! It's impossible!", she told him but Detective Damian confirmed it with the hospital report, and also Cassandra's husband confessed about his wife's twin.
"Lucy?", she uttered. Her soft voice trembled.Lucy turned around and as soon as she saw Cassandra, her eyes started to sharpen."Yes, it's me. Your one and only friend that you betrayed!", she said while staring at Cassandra with her glaring eyes.Cassandra walked towards her and find an empty chair in front of her. Her face became thinner and her wrinkles almost covered her forehead. She is getting older and maybe because of the domestic effect, she hadn't had a good appetite inside the prison.Lucy feels pity for her in a good way. Even she took Austin and kidnap her, she's not the type of person that held a grudge against someone that hurts her. Just like Eloisa and Gale, she forgives them.Cassandra cleared her throat before she started to release a few words at Lucy." So what brings you here? Do you want to say something?", she asked her.Lucy clenched her fist on her lap.
